Desloratadine
Desloratadine is a non-drowsy antihistamine used to alleviate allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. It works by blocking histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic reactions. Available in tablet form, Desloratadine is often chosen for its minimal sedative effects, making it suitable for daytime use. This medication is commonly used for both seasonal allergies and chronic urticaria (hives). By reducing histamine's effects, it helps patients maintain normal daily activities without the discomfort of allergy symptoms. Desloratadine tablets are easy to ingest and provide long-lasting relief with a single daily dose.Active substance:
